Triple Chocolate Cookies


INGREDIENTS
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon fine salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
8 tablespoons unsalted butter (1 stick)
6 ounces bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
2 large eggs
1 large yolk
1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
6 ounces semisweet chocolate chips
6 ounces white chocolate chips

DIRECTIONS
WHISK the flour, baking powder, salt, baking soda, and cloves together in a medium bowl. 
MELT the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. 
REMOVE pan from the heat, add the bittersweet chocolate, then set aside until melted.
WHISK the eggs, brown sugar, and vanilla together in a medium bowl, then slowly whisk in chocolate. 
STIR in the flour mixture to make a loose dough. Don't overwork the dough. 
FOLD in the chips. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours.
PREHEAT oven to 350 degrees F (or 325 if convection option is available).
LINE a baking sheet with parchment paper. Form dough into balls, about 2 inches or 1 1/2 ounces each, and put on the prepared baking sheets, leaving a couple inches between the cookies. 
BAKE until outside is crackly, but the center is still moist, about 13 to 15 minutes, or 12 in convection. Cool on a rack.
